Can some one please te me what is the legal way to dispose of. Deer and hog trimmings , the deer ribs and sinu and hoofs is what I am trying to get rid of. Can I throw them in a drainage ditch or something? Or would be that be considered dumping even though the will eventually decay away?

When I lived in town, I'd cut them up into mid sized pieces, freeze, then put out on trash day.
I can't stand it when people drive down county roads and dump the carcasses out in feed sacks. Always ends up in the middle of the road.

That's another concern for me I don't want my trimmings causing some type of accident on the road....does any one know a game warden I can call and ask?

If you live in town and are creating the trimmings there, then use your trash service. If you are butchering at the lease, then find out where the bone pile is or have one designated by those in charge.

I'm rural, and raising sheep and goats, a bone pile is a must have, so I have a handy place to go with it. I also use my local trash service at times. I see lots of sh*t dumped all over "'cause we're country and it don't matter". I have no love loss for those who dump there carcasses, trash, dogs or whatever in the country because it's convenient and "doesn't matter".
Please, don't be one of those.

Totally agree with Bigrock!

We have a little culvert bridge right by the road entrance to our lease and it becomes a dumping ground! Not sure why folks think this okay but in addition to the trash we get deer remains, fish scraps, even a dead goat one time! Not a pleasant thing when opening the gate!

If you call the County S.O. they should have the contact for your local GW, or I think it might even be listed on TPWD web site.

Also, thank you for not just dumping it out on some back country road. Smile

Leave all you can at the property where you harvest the animal. The parts left after packing up the meat are best frozen and placed in the trash the morning of trash day. Just put it in a bag of some sort and then in the can.

I feed most of mine to my dogs, those two labs will eat anything and they love deer shins and trimmings of all kinds. The heads freak them out though. Laughing

Now that's messed up. Take the damn thing back to where you shot it at least.

bigger pigs are too tough for buzzards to get thru the skin...
lost a bull and they cant get thru him either..
so carcasses tend to hang around...yuk...
no RnR, we have plenty fresh... Very Happy
been trapping some..
time for a flood in the boneyard...
but shot hogs dumped on the roads are not pleasant...

It's way to common for people to dump waste in ditches and creeks. PLEASE do not pollute our waterways.

This is how I handle big boar hogs and cattle that die on my ranch. I run a sharp knife from their head along their backbone to their tail and skin back some of the hide to expose the back-straps. The buzzards and coyotes will strip it out in short time. About 2 days for a large pig and about a week for a large cow.

That will do it! Give them a place to start and they will make short work of it!

that's good and all, but when the skin is greenish-blue, I just want it far away....
holding one's breath while chaining back legs to a tractor hitch aint fun...
gag-fest many times over...
